How exciting. Congratulations to all. I am "Gran" to our 3 little ones. My mother has always been Grandma and their other Grandmother is Nana, so wanted something different. My husband is Grandpa for the same reason.

Congratulations! So much fun is in store for you! What pretty quilts you have made for the little one! I'm waiting to see what our grand daughter will call us (she is 14 months old) but her parents are calling us Grandma and Grandpa.

Wonderful news. I don't know if this is your first or not, but each one is special and a blessing. Love the elephant theme. It made me smile because we moved to Tuscaloosa, AL almost 3 years ago where the University of Alabama is, and we see lots of elephants around here. Our oldest granddaughter is a junior here, so I am making her a red and white elephant on a grey background wall quilt for her birthday which is next week. Guess I need to get off the computer and do some more sewing:)

I have three children but only my youngest has given me grandchildren and she did so late in life, but what a gift, three grandchildren all at once! The trips turn 5 this July. The call me grandma and literally shout it out at airports and other meeting places - they have a "grandma carol" as well. I think that it is best to let the child finally decide what they want to call you - it is their comfort zone that is needed. Congrats, you will have such joy.

woohoo, congratulations to everyone. this is such a super special occasion. those elephants will be darling. i love the idea with family signing hearts for the wall.quilting dash lady at comcast dot net

I'm so happy for you!!! My oldest daughter was married in January She and her husband want to try later this year to get pregnant. Crossing my fingers! My girlfriend is called mema, I like that! My other girlfriend is called Nona , my kids call my mom Grammie!!! Whatever name you get or choose your gonna rock this! 😃 I better get the binding on my elephant parade quilt for good luck!!! XO

Congratulations! You will love being a grandma. I'm making Elephant Parade for my niece who is having her first baby in July. Have you seen the book Elmer by David McKee? Elmer is a patchwork elephant.

Yay Sandy!! So happy for you. Your daughter is so lucky to have such a wonderful and creative mom. I know you will be smitten with your new grand baby! I just love being a 'Gi Gi'. Someone told me one day that their mom thought she was too young to be a grandma so she went with Gigi for 'gorgeous grandma'!! I thought that was the ticket for me so I am Gigi to 5 wonderful Grandchildren so far. You will probably hear a name that you fall in love with. The traditional 'grandma' is wonderful too! Sooo happy for you!

Lots of Information here!!
